Jade Goody’s mum Jackiey Budden has insisted she is not responsible for grandson Freddy Brazier’s cannabis use.

Jackiey, 68, has spoken out in fury after Freddy had claimed his maternal grandmother got him “hooked” on drugs when he was just 12. He had said in a podcast he does hope to have a healthy relationship with Jackiey amid Jeff’s legal battle to stop him seeing the pensioner.

But Jackie, whose daughter Jade died in 2009 of cancer, has hit back at the 20-year-old man’s comments. She said: “I’ve read all these things he’s said about me and I just can’t believe he’d say them. It just isn’t true at all – I can’t believe it.

Before he and I ever smoked together while we were traveling in Essex near Jeff’s house, Freddy said, “He had gotten into some bad crowds, but it wasn’t with me.”

Freddy bravely opened up about his addiction, revealing he was sectioned amid manic episodes. His TV presenter dad Jeff, 46, became concerned for Freddy after he was pictured smoking with Jackiey.

Jackiey, who is a native of Southwark, south London, disputes claims that she “got her grandson hooked” on cannabis, a Class B drug in the UK that is not for recreational use.

Speaking to the Mail Online in the wake of Freddy’s allegations, Jackiey added: “All I’ve ever tried to do is look out for him and give him somewhere safe to be whenever he wants to – and this has really upset me that he would do this.”

Jackiey’s daughter Jade, who died aged 27, was consumed with anxiety over how her sons Bobby and Freddy would turn out without her, it is understood. Both sons are attempting to navigate fledgling showbusiness careers but, while Bobby, 22, impressed during his three-year stint in EastEnders, concern has grown for Freddy.

Freddy is everywhere, a family friend once said to Mail Online. Heutters exactly the opposite of what he says in the next sentence. He wants to turn his life around by going to rehab the next minute and listening to his father. He changed his mind a few hours later, saying there are no issues, and he is scurrying off with ferocity once more.

But the TV personality received praise for his candid reflections in his podcast and honest posts on Instagram. In June, he told his social media fans he was going to Spain for rehab following the fallout with his father. Freddy wrote: “I’ve found a boxing club and a rehabilitation centre. Ive found someone I want to get to know and I’m happy. I got a good bunch of friends and I [want to] get out and enjoy myself.
